While 'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah' is his claim to fame, the actor has dabbled in movies and theatre much before the show was launched on TV. Today, on his birthday we revisit a picture of the actor from his theatre days.
Earlier, Joshi had shared a picture of himself clicked in 1983 while he was a part of active theatre. The picture, the actor says was clicked in Mumbai's famous Prithvi theatre's green room ahead of him going on stage for his play. The actor shared two pictures- one, a close up of his bearded look and in another a full look of his costume. He is seen giving a cowboy vibe with his round hat, denim jacket and jeans.
"1983. The green room at the legendary Prithvi Theatre in Juhu, just before we were about to go live with our play ‘Khelaiya’. Lots of fond memories from that time with the entire cast and crew, especially Chandu Bhai, Paresh Bhai, and the one and only Mahendra Joshi," Joshi wrote sharing the pictures.
